Space Academy- Glasgow Science Centre Careers Event

September 5, 2024

DYW LED was delighted to be able to support a Space and STEM Career event at the Glasgow Science Centre on the 12th of June, in partnership with the Space Academy UK.

DYW joined a host of employers including NASA, Space Academy Skyrora, the RAF, City of Glasgow College, Spire Global Limited, Techfest and Stem Glasgow. This was a great STEM employer initiative to highlight the many increasing career pathways in the STEM Space sector in not only the UK, but Scotland.

We were even treated to a live Q&A from 3 NASA scientists and astronauts on the day.  during Scottish Apprenticeship Week.  4 schools were able to take part from South and North Lanarkshire, and with such a close proximity to the nearest Spaceport at Prestwick Airport the event should return again next year, bigger and better.
